So after about a month of digging around. I figured out that my ignition was no longer recognizing the chipped key even though my red anti theft light didnt blink. Wouldnt allow my car to start. I took the car to get an aftermarket alarm and had a ford technician disable the old anti theft and now the car works wonderfully. Although it will need a new power steering pump
